Why Choose ORGANIC Food?




In America today there is an astounding increase in health related illnesses and medical problems, some of which never existed decades ago.  Almost all of these health related issues can be resolved by choosing to eat organic foods.

THERE ARE 5 MAIN REASONS TO CHOOSE ORGANIC FOODS:

  • Nutrients
      Organic farmers nourish the soil that feeds our food.  Scientific research has
        shown that organically-produced foods are higher in antioxidants and other
        beneficial nutrients than foods labeled "natural" or your typical variety of
        GMO foods sold in grocery stores.

  • Pesticides or Synthetic Fertilizers
        Designed by intent to kill living organisms, pesticides are harmful to wildlife 
        and human health.  They contaminate our food, air, water and contaminate 
        our cells.  Synthetic fertilizers contribute to soil degradation and ocean dead 
        zones.
  • Synthetic Growth and Breeding Hormones
        Avoiding synthetic hormones means less stress for animals and reduced 
        exposure to destructive chemicals that destroy human endocrine systems.

  • No Antibiotics
        Overuse of antibiotics in farm animals leads to the development of 
        dangerous antibiotic resistance to infections in humans.

  • No GMO'S  (Genetically Modified Organisms)
        GMO's is a newer technology with devastating impacts on human and animal 
        health.  Organic restrictions FORBID the use of genetically altered seeds and 
        genetically altered food.  GMO food is the result of government promoting 
        the use of toxic pesticides on our agriculture.


The organic philosophy means living in harmony with nature.  It's your decision to live healthy and choose to eat organically.
